Sammo

Other mistake: Despite being a deadly marksman (only a few minutes earlier in the movie he stopped a bullet directed at him shooting it off the air), Bloodsport snipes several times at the huge kaiju featuring a massive eye in the central part of its body, and never once hits it. (01:51:45)

Sammo

Continuity mistake: When Polka-Dot Man shoots his projectiles at his giant mom, he's standing in the sun or in the shade depending on the camera angle. (01:52:45)

Sammo

Continuity mistake: When the people in the control room wake up and find out there's "A freakin' Kaiju", the clocks are showing entirely different timezones from the previous instances, with a wild difference from one another (earlier they were a couple hours apart, now we have even 9 hours), and none of which matching the time when the action supposedly takes place (it was late morning, past 10 AM as shown by the surveillance room clock and the phone in the hands of Harley's torturer).

Xiong zhong (1982)

Continuity mistake: When "Bruce Lee" is fighting the bad guys after he catches the poker cheater, there are multiple continuity mistakes; the bad guys are knocked atop the tables in the room but they disappear and reappear from those tables between shots.

Pledge This! (2006)

Continuity mistake: Used condoms start trickling down from a jar stuck in a tree. The woman subjected to this unusual rain looks up and one of the condoms gets on her face, over her eye. When the big bundle of condoms drops on her head, it is shown through two shots that are not at all in continuity with one another; different posture, head angle and the eye condom is gone and then back. (00:40:15)

Sammo

Continuity mistake: When Flag collapses after his fight with Peacemaker, his hand is off the shower tray. Peacemaker then talks to Ratcatcher 2, and Flag's hand is well on the tray. (01:31:40 - 01:32:05)

Tiger Claws (1991)

Continuity mistake: When Cynthia Rothrock acts as a bait for the maniac at the beginning of the movie, she is walking down the nice and brightly lit slums in black high heels. A fight ensues, and she kicks him around wearing black sneakers (after her triple roundhouse she strikes a pose in a wide shot and it's very noticeable). Her incompetent partner joins in late, and she walks out on him wearing high heels again. (00:01:55)

Sammo

Continuity mistake: An personal assistant brings news about the attack on Jotunheim. Suarez turns towards her holding a sheet, but in the previous shot he already threw the document on the desk striking a pensive pose. (01:22:05)

Sammo

Continuity mistake: When Peacemaker sticks the detonator inside the explosive after the humorous argument with King Shark, the detonator is suddenly lower in the last shot. (01:21:45)

Sammo

Continuity mistake: After killing the guards all around her, Harley rushes into the next room, kicking the door open, and begins fighting in close quarters with more. She breaks the arm of one of the guards who tries to stab her through the bars. In the sequence, the red wrap is covering her fingers in one shot, it's underneath them in the next. (01:12:15)

Sammo

Continuity mistake: At the beginning of her escape, Harley faces three guards. The rightmost one is smoking a cigarette, then has no cigarette in his mouth, then he has it again. (01:11:25)

Sammo

Continuity mistake: Martin McNamara calls his brother at the beginning of the movie and tells him he'll be ready in two minutes. When the camera cuts to a new shot, his grip on the phone changed entirely.

Sammo

Continuity mistake: The government forces are rounding up the foreigners outside the bar. Bloodsport finishes his beer and puts it down; the bottle is facing opposite directions in the two shots, just look at the label. (01:02:10)

What If...? (2021)

What If... Captain Carter Were the First Avenger? - S1-E1

Other mistake: The premise of the first episode is flawed; "a single choice" should make the difference, the choice being identified as Ms. Carter not leaving the room to get in the observation booth. But in the normal timeline the booth is exactly where all the other characters were. In this reality everyone else is downstairs, with the German spy that inexplicably sets the bomb early. If anything, it's his bizarre, suicidal choice that matters.

Suggested correction: Except it was her decision to not leave the room that delayed the procedure and gave Heinz Kruger the chance to attack. And with her in the room, she is now given the chance to volunteer to take the serum.

How did her staying delay the procedure? Besides, in OTL the spy only triggered the bomb after he saw the procedure succeed, to know it works before stealing it.

New Getter Robo (2004)

There Goes Ryoma - S1-E1

Character mistake: Professor Saotome checks the status of the Getter Robot when his son falls unconscious. The HUD output is written in awkward EngRish, from the first line of the status report, called; "Monitor the state of affairs", to smaller details like the article randomly used for certain lines ("a control device, a correspondent"). The biggest flub though is that the name of his son is "Tatsuhito", in proper romanization, but here appears as "Tatuto." (00:05:20)

Tiger Claws (1991)

Other mistake: The sword champion is murdered in a dark room. Cut to Tarek Richards by his corpse. The room is still shrouded in darkness, which makes for a cool transition. However, when the camera pans out and someone (with an audible click) turns on the lights, you realise that the room is full of cops which up to that moment have been working in a dark room for no reason - and they have been doing things that require reading and writing, like collecting witness statements.

Sammo

Visible crew/equipment: One of the punks wisely escapes the beating making a run for it with the paper bag containing the cash. The shopkeeper curses him ""He got away with all my money, the son of a..." As Kurt turns the corner and the camera follows him, the camera casts its shadow on the wall. (00:04:45)

Sammo

Continuity mistake: Ratcatcher 2 tries on some round glasses holding the box with her thumb on the top of the side, into the opening. Wider shots have her hand placed towards the bottom. (00:53:35)

Sammo

Continuity mistake: El Presidente Luna stops moving and bleeds from his mouth with his palm against the floor. He's wide-eyed dead and motionless, but next time we see him after Harley stops musing over how well-endowed he was, his hand is turned around, palm up. (00:48:35)

Sammo

Continuity mistake: When the valet tells Harley that the president wants to see her, the guard behind Harley is looking towards her. For her response, he's facing away from her, and her facial expression is different as well. (00:42:00)
